I think my ipod is completly broke...

For a couple months now my home button has not functioned correctly and just this past week it has lost all functionality which made me decide to restore the firmware in itunes and try to fix it. But to my surprise when i connect it in itunes i get the error that says "pairing record is missing". so now i cant restore in itunes, or iliberty, or ziphone b/c itunes will not connect with it. I also cannot force restart since my home button does not work. AND i cannot bring it to an apple store since it is jailbroken... Any help would be great!!

install an app that makes a hovering home button (don't remember the name). Use that to enter restore.
If that doesn't work, keep the app, then install open ssh. then try to find the command to enter dfu
